When it comes to surrealist puppeteering and adapting children’s literature into a massive mash of beautiful images it doesn’t get must better than ole’ Jan Svankmajer. I don’t know if we’ve got enough space on this blog for a crash course in his impact on modern animation but with all this internet talk of how things are shaping up in Wonderland I thought it only fitting to take a look back at the man himself via this supremely bizarre three part documentary lurking around youtube.
